In the absence of Olympic silver medalist Ravi Dahiya, Sehrawat brought home the medal for the fourth consecutive time in as many years. Prior to this, he beat Japan's Rikuto Arai 7-1 in the quarterfinal, and China's Wanhao Zou 7-4 in the semifinal. This has been an excellent year for the 17-year-old as he won a bronze medal at the Zagreb Open in February.
On the other hand, Deepak Kukna (79kg) and Deepak Nehra (97kg) will fight it out for bronze medals, while Anuj Kumar (65kg) and Mulayam Yadav (70kg) did not enter the medal rounds, and lost earlier. In all, the Indian contingent has won 12 medals so far, with Greco-Roman fetching four medals, and women getting seven. Aman's medal was also the first gold for the entire contingent in the championship.
